Evidence-Based Physical Examination BEST PRACTICES FOR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING ASSESSMENTEvidence-Based Physical Examination BEST PRACTICES FOR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING ASSESSMENTKate Sustersic Gawlik, DNP, APRN-CNP, FAANP, is an assistant professor of clinical nursing at the Ohio State University. She is certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center as an adult and family nurse practitioner. She has extensive background in primary care, with experience in family practice, college health, urgent care, and reproductive care. Her clinical interests are evidence-based practice, population health, preventive medicine, clinician well-being, health professionals’ education, wellness, and cardiovascular disease prevention. She has served as the project manager for the Million Hearts® initiatives at Ohio State’s College of Nursing since 2013. She leads and serves on multiple state and national workgroups targeted at improving cardiovascular population health. Dr. Gawlik started her nursing career in 2006 and completed her MSc in nursing with a specialization as an adult/geriatric nurse practitioner in 2009 from the Ohio State University. In 2015, she graduated with her DNP and a post-master’s certificate as a family nurse practitioner from the Ohio State University. Dr. Gawlik was awarded the Outstanding Faculty Award in 2013 and the Outstanding Leadership Award in 2017 at the Ohio State University. She received an Abstract of Distinction at the Council for the Advancement of Nursing Science Conference in 2016 and the Editor’s Pick for 2017 Paper of the Year by the American Journal of Health Promotion for “An Epidemiological Study of Population Health Reveals Social Smoking as a Major Cardiovascular Risk Factor.” She was awarded the 2018 American Association of Nurse Practitioner State Award for Excellence for Ohio. She was inducted as a fellow into the American Association of Nurse Practitioners in June 2018. Dr. Gawlik has been teaching nursing students since 2007. She has taught a variety of undergraduate, RN–BSN, and graduate nursing courses and serves as a clinical preceptor for advanced practice nursing students. Her passion lies in teaching in the online platform, both in synchronous and asynchronous classrooms. She has been teaching solely online since 2012. Dr. Gawlik developed an online educational module on cardiovascular population health that is used nationally and internationally. The educational module has led to the cardiovascular screening of over 75,000 people. Her educational interests include the development of new and innovative teaching modalities and pedagogies for online teaching with a focus on advanced assessment, evidence-based practice, and health promotion courses. This is Dr. Gawlik’s first book. She is hopeful that by integrating her three passions–advanced assessment, evidence-based practice, and health promotion–into one book, students will have the opportunity to apply and assimilate these three foundational skills in their journey to become expert clinicians. Bernadette Mazurek Melnyk, PhD, APRN-CNP, FAANP, FNAP, FAAN, is the vice president for health promotion,
